"Desmond installed glass block in the basement window well to replace a leaking casement window. He quickly returned my call for an estimate and gave me a quote upon inspection. He installed the glass block perfectly along with waterproofing and even did an extra coating of mortar on the outside sill so that water would slope away from the window. The work was done expertly. I would highly recommend Desmond - he is very nice person, knowledgeable and performs stellar work."

"Fabiano was a pleasure to work with. He was punctual when showing up to provide an estimate and to the project itself. He gave me accurate time lines and updates in real time when fixing my deck. After comparing 4 other contractors to replace my deck, Fabiano gave the best quote with no surprises and the estimate was spot on! I would absolutely recommend Fabiano for your next project"

"After a long process of trying to get estimates for re-doing my old deck using maintenance free composites, I went w/ Tedesco Construction, as the estimate was realistic and they regularly kept in Touch with me from the very beginning and during the preliminary planning process and all through the project, as this was going on during Covid, with materials shortages,etc. Tom the project manager checked in w me regularly and was attentive to details,as there were some change orders along the way . But now I have a beautiful new deck and am thrilled.Thank you Tom & Tedesco Construction!"

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

Glass block installation can be relatively expensive due to the range of material costs and the labor time to assemble this type of specialty window. The process proceeds slowly as the glass does not absorb moisture from mortar and silicone caulk takes longer to harden, leaving spacers to hold up the structure until the caulk or mortar begins to cure. Plus, if your current windows have structural issues or damage, you’ll need to repair them before beginning the project, increasing your bottom line. 

New glass costs anywhere from $3 to $100 per square foot. More specifically, tempered and insulated glass—a common option for sliding glass doors—costs between $10 and $14 per square foot.

Luckily, glass block windows need minimal maintenance. Other than regular cleaning, the only maintenance involved in having a glass block window is inspecting for cracks every year and applying sealer to the mortar joints if the blocks are set in masonry mortar. Glass block windows hold up well against wind and moisture better than traditional windows and are not prone to rot.

Installing glass block windows has benefits and disadvantages, as with most materials. The pros and cons can vary depending on the type of glass block and the window location.

Pros

  • Maintains privacy while letting light into the bathroom

  • Energy efficient

  • Sealed to prevent drafts

  • Aesthetically pleasing

  • Strong and secure

Cons

  • Costly to install

  • Challenging installation

  • Challenging repair

Glass walls are more expensive overall than their brick or drywall counterparts. However, if you need walls for a building with more than two or three stories, glass walls are the more budget-friendly option.
